265 you have a system with more than one CPU, say Y.
266

268 machines, but will use only one CPU of a multiprocessor machine. If
269 you say Y here, the kernel will run on many, but not all,
270 singleprocessor machines. On a singleprocessor machine, the kernel
271 will run faster if you say N here.
272
273 Note that if you say Y here and choose architecture "586" or
274 "Pentium" under "Processor family", the kernel will not work on 486
275 architectures. Similarly, multiprocessor kernels for the "PPro"
276 architecture may not work on all Pentium based boards.

827 Some chipsets generate a legacy INTx "boot IRQ" when the IRQ
828 entry in the chipset's IO-APIC is masked (as, e.g. the RT
829 kernel does during interrupt handling). On chipsets where this
830 boot IRQ generation cannot be disabled, this workaround keeps
831 the original IRQ line masked so that only the equivalent "boot
832 IRQ" is delivered to the CPUs. The workaround also tells the
833 kernel to set up the IRQ handler on the boot IRQ line. In this
834 way only one interrupt is delivered to the kernel. Otherwise
835 the spurious second interrupt may cause the kernel to bring

1023 However, the address space of 32-bit x86 processors is only 4

1154 For 64-bit this is recommended if the system is Intel Core i7
1155 (or later), AMD Opteron, or EM64T NUMA.
1156
1157 For 32-bit this is only needed on (rare) 32-bit-only platforms
1158 that support NUMA topologies, such as NUMAQ / Summit, or if you
1159 boot a 32-bit kernel on a 64-bit NUMA platform.
1160
1161 Otherwise, you should say N.

1334 Linux can emulate a math coprocessor (used for floating point
1335 operations) if you don't have one. 486DX and Pentium processors have
1336 a math coprocessor built in, 486SX and 386 do not, unless you added
1337 a 487DX or 387, respectively. (The messages during boot time can
1338 give you some hints here ["man dmesg"].) Everyone needs either a
1339 coprocessor or this emulation.
1340
1341 If you don't have a math coprocessor, you need to say Y here; if you
1342 say Y here even though you have a coprocessor, the coprocessor will
1343 be used nevertheless. (This behavior can be changed with the kernel
1344 command line option "no387", which comes handy if your coprocessor
1345 is broken. Try "man bootparam" or see the documentation of your boot
1346 loader (lilo or loadlin) about how to pass options to the kernel at
1347 boot time.) This means that it is a good idea to say Y here if you
1348 intend to use this kernel on different machines.
1349
1350 More information about the internals of the Linux math coprocessor
1351 emulation can be found in <file:arch/x86/math-emu/README>.

1359 ---help---
1360 On Intel P6 family processors (Pentium Pro, Pentium II and later)
1361 the Memory Type Range Registers (MTRRs) may be used to control
1362 processor access to memory ranges. This is most useful if you have
1363 a video (VGA) card on a PCI or AGP bus. Enabling write-combining
1364 allows bus write transfers to be combined into a larger transfer
1365 before bursting over the PCI/AGP bus. This can increase performance
1366 of image write operations 2.5 times or more. Saying Y here creates a
1367 /proc/mtrr file which may be used to manipulate your processor's
1368 MTRRs. Typically the X server should use this.
1369
1370 This code has a reasonably generic interface so that similar
1371 control registers on other processors can be easily supported
1372 as well:
1373
1374 The Cyrix 6x86, 6x86MX and M II processors have Address Range
1375 Registers (ARRs) which provide a similar functionality to MTRRs. For
1376 these, the ARRs are used to emulate the MTRRs.
1377 The AMD K6-2 (stepping 8 and above) and K6-3 processors have two
1378 MTRRs. The Centaur C6 (WinChip) has 8 MCRs, allowing
1379 write-combining. All of these processors are supported by this code
1380 and it makes sense to say Y here if you have one of them.
1381
1382 Saying Y here also fixes a problem with buggy SMP BIOSes which only
1383 set the MTRRs for the boot CPU and not for the secondary CPUs. This
1384 can lead to all sorts of problems, so it's good to say Y here.
1385
1386 You can safely say Y even if your machine doesn't have MTRRs, you'll
1387 just add about 9 KB to your kernel.

1531 This gives the physical address where the kernel is loaded.
1532
1533 If kernel is a not relocatable (CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=n) then
1534 bzImage will decompress itself to above physical address and
1535 run from there. Otherwise, bzImage will run from the address where
1536 it has been loaded by the boot loader and will ignore above physical
1537 address.
1538
1539 In normal kdump cases one does not have to set/change this option
1540 as now bzImage can be compiled as a completely relocatable image
1541 (CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y) and be used to load and run from a different
1542 address. This option is mainly useful for the folks who don't want
1543 to use a bzImage for capturing the crash dump and want to use a
1544 vmlinux instead. vmlinux is not relocatable hence a kernel needs
1545 to be specifically compiled to run from a specific memory area
1546 (normally a reserved region) and this option comes handy.
1547
1548 So if you are using bzImage for capturing the crash dump,
1549 leave the value here unchanged to 0x1000000 and set
1550 CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y. Otherwise if you plan to use vmlinux
1551 for capturing the crash dump change this value to start of
1552 the reserved region. In other words, it can be set based on
1553 the "X" value as specified in the "crashkernel=YM@XM"
1554 command line boot parameter passed to the panic-ed
1555 kernel. Please take a look at Documentation/kdump/kdump.txt
1556 for more details about crash dumps.
1557
1558 Usage of bzImage for capturing the crash dump is recommended as
1559 one does not have to build two kernels. Same kernel can be used
1560 as production kernel and capture kernel. Above option should have
1561 gone away after relocatable bzImage support is introduced. But it
1562 is present because there are users out there who continue to use
1563 vmlinux for dump capture. This option should go away down the
1564 line.

1716 ---help---
1717 APM is a BIOS specification for saving power using several different
1718 techniques. This is mostly useful for battery powered laptops with
1719 APM compliant BIOSes. If you say Y here, the system time will be
1720 reset after a RESUME operation, the /proc/apm device will provide
1721 battery status information, and user-space programs will receive
1722 notification of APM "events" (e.g. battery status change).
1723
1724 If you select "Y" here, you can disable actual use of the APM
1725 BIOS by passing the "apm=off" option to the kernel at boot time.
1726
1727 Note that the APM support is almost completely disabled for
1728 machines with more than one CPU.
1729
1730 In order to use APM, you will need supporting software. For location
1731 and more information, read <file:Documentation/power/pm.txt> and the
1732 Battery Powered Linux mini-HOWTO, available from
1733 <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>.
1734
1735 This driver does not spin down disk drives (see the hdparm(8)
1736 manpage ("man 8 hdparm") for that), and it doesn't turn off
1737 VESA-compliant "green" monitors.
1738
1739 This driver does not support the TI 4000M TravelMate and the ACER
1740 486/DX4/75 because they don't have compliant BIOSes. Many "green"
1741 desktop machines also don't have compliant BIOSes, and this driver
1742 may cause those machines to panic during the boot phase.
1743
1744 Generally, if you don't have a battery in your machine, there isn't
1745 much point in using this driver and you should say N. If you get
1746 random kernel OOPSes or reboots that don't seem to be related to
1747 anything, try disabling/enabling this option (or disabling/enabling
1748 APM in your BIOS).
1749
1750 Some other things you should try when experiencing seemingly random,
1751 "weird" problems:
1752
1753 1) make sure that you have enough swap space and that it is
1754 enabled.
1755 2) pass the "no-hlt" option to the kernel
1756 3) switch on floating point emulation in the kernel and pass
1757 the "no387" option to the kernel
1758 4) pass the "floppy=nodma" option to the kernel
1759 5) pass the "mem=4M" option to the kernel (thereby disabling
1760 all but the first 4 MB of RAM)
1761 6) make sure that the CPU is not over clocked.
1762 7) read the sig11 FAQ at <http://www.bitwizard.nl/sig11/>
1763 8) disable the cache from your BIOS settings
1764 9) install a fan for the video card or exchange video RAM
1765 10) install a better fan for the CPU
1766 11) exchange RAM chips
1767 12) exchange the motherboard.

1770 module will be called apm.

1777 This option will ignore USER SUSPEND requests. On machines with a

1785 specification: "When disabled, the APM BIOS does not automatically
1786 power manage devices, enter the Standby State, enter the Suspend
1787 State, or take power saving steps in response to CPU Idle calls."
1788 This driver will make CPU Idle calls when Linux is idle (unless this
1789 feature is turned off -- see "Do CPU IDLE calls", below). This
1790 should always save battery power, but more complicated APM features
1791 will be dependent on your BIOS implementation. You may need to turn
1792 this option off if your computer hangs at boot time when using APM
1793 support, or if it beeps continuously instead of suspending. Turn
1794 this off if you have a NEC UltraLite Versa 33/C or a Toshiba
1795 T400CDT. This is off by default since most machines do fine without
1796 this feature.

1802 On some machines, this can activate improved power savings, such as
1803 a slowed CPU clock rate, when the machine is idle. These idle calls
1804 are made after the idle loop has run for some length of time (e.g.,
1805 333 mS). On some machines, this will cause a hang at boot time or
1806 whenever the CPU becomes idle. (On machines with more than one CPU,

1814 virtual console blanks the screen. Note that this is only used by
1815 the virtual console screen blanker, and won't turn off the backlight
1816 when using the X Window system. This also doesn't have anything to
1817 do with your VESA-compliant power-saving monitor. Further, this
1818 option doesn't work for all laptops -- it might not turn off your
1819 backlight at all, or it might print a lot of errors to the console,
1820 especially if you are using gpm.

1825 Normally we disable external interrupts while we are making calls to

1827 BIOS implementation. The BIOS should reenable interrupts if it
1828 needs to. Unfortunately, some BIOSes do not -- especially those in
1829 many of the newer IBM Thinkpads. If you experience hangs when you
1830 suspend, try setting this to Y. Otherwise, say N.
